Abstract

Research has determined that breast feeding is not a major contributor to cognitive development. In Australian tests between 1979 and 1982, assessments were made for bottle-fed and breast-fed children at ages two, four, seven and 11 to 13. After weighting for environmental, biomedical and sociodemographic factors, a statistically insignificant beneficial effect was observed for breast feeding.
